I believe (and I'm sure Bob/HoundDawg will correct me if I'm wrong) that the aimbot detection routines were based off accuracy and percentage of headshots, which people with really good aim can reach. I don't think it actually tracks crosshair movement.

This all sends us back to the point that client side detection is always unreliable. You can always find a way to synthesize a response from the client that appears valid. The only way to do cheat detection/prevention is server side. So we have HLGuard preventing wallhacks by simply not sending the data. That seems pretty impossible to beat. What else can be done to the server to secure it? And on that note, why is the aimbot stuff that detects in-human motion disabled by default in HLGuard? -Mad -- Madness is soil in which creativity grows - Chris Bielek _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
